Abstract

Examples relating to using non-visual feedback to alert a viewer of a display that a visual change has been triggered are disclosed. One disclosed example provides a method comprising using gaze tracking data from a gaze tracking system to determine that a viewer changes a gaze location. Based on determining that the viewer changes the gaze location, a visual change is triggered and non-visual feedback indicating the triggering of the visual change is provided to the viewer. If a cancel change input is received within a predetermined timeframe, the visual change is not displayed. If a cancel change input is not received within the timeframe, the visual change is displayed via the display.
